[RESOLVED] Blank DVD looks like CD!
This is a strange problem, and as far as I can tell, just started in the last couple of days (no new software installs or major changes).
I have 2 DVD burners in my PC (details in my sig). These show up correctly in Device Manager and Windows Explorer. However, when I insert a blank DVD, it suddenly shows up as a CD drive (and of course, I can't burn them as DVDs)! I get the Autorun pop-up asking me what I want to do with the CD drive, and when I look into Windows Explorer, that drive letter shows up as a CD drive. I tried a reboot but no luck.
I tried a couple of different brands but all show up as a CD. I tried a system restore to the last time I was able to burn a DVD but no luck.
Both of them will play DVDs just fine. Any idea what is going on?
